Patent AU-1902283-A (AU)
Title: Voice digitized compander
Inventor: BERGERON LAWRENCE E
IPC: H04B1/66
Filed: 1983-09-12
Abstract: Apparatus and a method are disclosed for digitizing a voice signal as it occurs and the digitized signal is compressed and stored for subsequent reconversion to a voice signal at a latter time. Binary words derived from digitizing the signal in an analog-to-digital converter represent the voice non lineary and are first linearized by a first processor and then stored in a first memory until a block of binary words are assembled. Next the block of binary words are transferred to a second buffer memory and a second processor compresses it using time domain harmonic scaling processing which extracts the pitch of the original voice and also compresses the voice frequency spectrum to affect a 2:1 reduction in the number of stored binary words representing the digitized voice signal. This reduced amout of data is then upsampled by a factor of four using linear interpolation to derive a pseudo higher sample rate required for further processing using continuously variable slope delta modulation processing which yields one binary bit out for every binary word processed. The resultant bits are assembled into eight bit words and then stored in a third memory. Another binary word representing the pitch is added and the result is a 4:1 compression of the original digitized data. The compressed digitized data is stored in a bulk memory. Thereafter, more digitized samples of the voice signal undergo this same processing. Compressed digitized voice signals may be reconverted to a voice signal for playback by processing the digitized and compressed voice signals generally in the reverse order. Playback speed control may also be accomplished without changing the pitch of the voice. To double the playback speed the time domain harmonic scaling processing is deleted in playback, thus leaving the frequency spectrum compressed and a 2:1 reduction in binary words representing the digitized voice. To slow the playback speed the digitized voice signals undergo modified TDHS processing.

Title: An analyzing apparatus and method
Inventor: FIDDIAN-GREEN RICHARD
IPC: A61B5/1473
Filed: 1995-06-29
Abstract: A remote sensing tonometric catheter apparatus (20) and method for sampling of a fluid or gas property of interest in a hollow internal organ. The tonometric catheter (20) assists in early detection of the problems of stress ulceration and/or intestinal ischemia. The tonometric catheter (20) has one or more sampling chambers (40) for introduction into a hollow internal organ or an area adjacent thereto. The tonometric catheter (20) has an electric sensor (42) for developing a signal indicative of the condition of the organ. Electric sensor (42) is in communication with the sampling chamber (40). The sensor (42) has a conductor (56) coupled therewith for conveying the signal to a location outside the organ such that the condition of the organ may be remotely determined. Preferably, the wall (36) of the sampling chamber (40) is freely permeable to the gas or fluid to be measured by the sensor (42), but is poorly permeable to other gases or fluids which may interfere with the sensor (42). The method is accomplished by introducing the catheter into the organ such that the sampling chamber is disposed at a portion of the wall of the organ. The sampling chamber is left in position at the wall of the organ for a time sufficient to allow the fluid or gas of interest to diffuse into the sampling chamber. The concentration of the fluid or gas of interest is analyzed. The pH of the wall of the organ may be calculated based on the concentration of the fluid or gas property of interest.

Title: Porous power and ground planes for reduced pcb delamination and better reliability
Inventor: POLIKS MARK
IPC: H05K3/42
Filed: 2000-03-23
Abstract: Power and ground planes that are used in Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) and that comprise porous, conductive materials are disclosed. Using porous power and ground plane materials in PCBs allows liquids (e.g., water and/or other solvents) to pass through the power and ground planes, thus decreasing failures in PCBs (or PCBs used as laminate chip carriers) caused by cathodic/anodic filament growth and delamination of insulators. Porous conductive materials suitable for use in PCBs may be formed by using metal-coated organic cloths (such as polyester or liquid crystal polymers) or fabrics (such as those made from carbon/graphite or glass fibers), using metal wire mesh instead of metal sheets, using sintered metal, or making metal sheets porous by forming an array of holes in the metal sheets. Fabrics and mesh may be woven or random. If an array of holes is formed in a metal sheet, such an array may be formed with no additional processing steps than are performed using conventional PCB assembly methods.

Patent AU-3756901-A (AU)
Title: Metal detector
Inventor: BRITTON ANDREW MICHAEL
IPC: G01V3/10
Filed: 2001-03-06
Abstract: A metal detector has a circular excitation coil ( 10 ) through which foodstuffs to be tested ( 65 ) pass, on a conveyor belt ( 40 ). The excitation coil ( 10 ) is excited by a stable oscillator ( 50 ) and the lines of flux generated by the excitation coil ( 10 ) link two receiver coils ( 20, 30 ) equidistantly spaced either side of the excitation coil ( 10 ). As a foodstuff ( 65 ) having a foreign ferromagnetic or electrically conductive object therein passes through the receiver coils ( 20, 30 ), a voltage is induced in them. This induced voltage is phase compensated. The change in amplitude or frequency of the oscillator ( 50 ) as the foodstuff ( 65 ) moves through the excitation coil ( 10 ) is also passed to the processor ( 70 ) which removes the artifacts from the detector signal caused by the volume of the foodstuff ( 65 ) itself. The resultant signal, which was previously swamped by the effect of the volume of the foodstuff itself, can then be detected and the foodstuff can be removed from the conveyor ( 40 ).
